Classic Spotted: Topspots from July

For the more sophisticated the BMW buyer power and speed of a car from M Motorsport GmbH sought but was not enamored of the flashy appearance Alpina offered a solution. These fellow South German breeder, as they like to call themselves, had immediately after the launch of the E34 M5 in 1988, has a ready niche model, the B10.

Unlike the M5 which is only available with an engine and drivetrain, you could choose to Alpina variants. It began in 1988 with the 3.5 B10 256 hp and one year later, the former top model, the Bi-Turbo on the market. The specimen spotted here are concerned about Bi-Turbo Alpina Blau in the classic color. The M50B35 engine in the above Bi-Turbo engine size was 3.500cc and delivered 350 hp. All this was good for a top speed of 290 km / h this car that the check given the limited M5.

Later, when the E34 series slowly disappeared from the scene brought some Alpina V8 variants based on the 540i out. To compete with all-wheel drive performance models like the Audi S6 C4 was also the B10 3.0 Allrad which was based on a M50B25 525IX 6-in line that had been drilled to 3.000cc.

The E34 Alpina B10 Bi-Turbo is just 507 times and produced on Dutch roads is an absolute rarity. "It's the kiss of death from Mister Goldfinger!" Sean Connery was the legendary James Bond film is not the only star. The Aston Martin DB5 Coupe in silver smoke color actually connects you automatically with this film, probably the best two British icons ever created.

The Aston Martin DB5 was little outward change from the DB4 end of 1963 when he came on the market. The body was just Touring in Milan and also in the fore-

was another in-line 6 cylinder engine. The 3.6 liters, however, was increased to 3995 cc and produced 282 horsepower at 5,500 now rpm. For buyers who wanted a faster car was the Vantage package available again giving the car 314 bhp and a top speed of 260 km / h instead of 235 km / h was reached. The DB5 is 898 times that produced only 37 Vantage's. The spotted this specimen is a normal Coupé Dutch license, there are ten copies in the Netherlands.

That Opel Diplomat CD in 1969 as a "dream car" which presented the production stage would not make it Sat Erich Bitter is not quite nice. He went to the top and Opel did persuade them to produce the car in small scale, carried out by Bitter. So in 1973 the CD Bitter, a luxury coupe powered by a 230 hp V8. This was the car able to reach 210 kilometers per hour.

Small-scale production continued throughout the construction period from 1973 to 1979 on the agenda. In these six years, only 395 built. Despite the generous purchase price was higher than the average luxury like the Opel Senator, continued to reduce maintenance costs by using only GM parts. Despite its rarity that a car does not have to be extremely expensive proves this Bitter as a copy is already a budget of around € 25,000 to find.
